Special childhood patients, the prevention of oral health problems, the promotion of a positive attitude and the acceptance of dental care should have the highest priority. Dental treatment in patients with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) can be complicated due to the presence of behavioral alterations, patient anxiety, the questionable preparation of dental staff and the consequent fears in parents; which can limit attendance at the consultation in a timely manner and at an early age to achieve good adaptation, however the prevention of oral health problems, the promotion of a positive attitude and the acceptance of dental care must have the highest priority.
The objective of this review was to describe the relevant evidence for the management of behavior in the dental consultation in children with ASD, for this a systematic search of the literature was carried out using information search engines such as: PubMed, SCOPUS and Scielo.
In conclusion, children with ASD need help to understand and focus on the treatment situation, communication must be modified to adapt to each individual patient, give you simple instructions with very specific information. The introduction to the exam or treatment may be made in several appointments spaced by one or several days. Parents know what their child will experience during the dentist appointment, and will be better prepared to support and encourage their child both before and during the visits.
